I’m done, I’ve been banned for expressing a different opinion (without insulting or personally attacking anyone), I’ve been accused of evading a ban with multiple accounts (this is my only account I’ve ever had on any lemmy instance), I’ve had people selectively ignore my comments and accuse me of things which I never said, and I’ve had people ignore valid criticisms and keep attacking me.
Reddit has many issues with trolls, one-sided discussion, and just general bullshit, but many Lemmy instances are way worse. The newfound freedom of Lemmy has attracted many extremists, from both sides, and many of them are moderators, who are more than happy to remove any contrarian opinions. This results in discussions being echo chambers
True, communism does require democracy. Which is why they aren’t truly communist or democratic. Democracy is kind of the opposite of silencing and killing those that go against the party. Ya know? Lol next you’ll try to tell me that North Korea is actually a Democratic People’s Republic.
Okay don’t listen. Whatever.
I’ve heard it several times. It doesn’t get any more true no matter how much you repeat it. It would take another revolution before they would actually switch to communism. ML are just about as bad as the imperialist capitalists they hate in most measures. Far worse in others. They both suck in their whataboutism of the other.
What am I repeating? You’re trying to have an argue against points I am not making. Go to lemmygrad if you want to argue with them.
